I Wanted to See You (2)

Raito

That’s an altar designed to boost the chances of encountering aliens.

Kinari

…?

Kuguri enters the room quickly.

Raito

I’m a fan of the occult, and I learned from a renowned occult streamer that setting up an altar like this is said to boost the chances of meeting aliens.

Kuguri

(…So it’s one of those stories. What a joke.)

Kinari

Have you ever encountered an alien after assembling an altar?

Raito

Not yet. Though, I’m sure one will appear when the time is right.

…At least, that’s what I believe.

Kinari

…Commencing database search.

Although it is unclear if it affects the chances of encountering aliens, search results suggest partaking in these actions increases the probability of one’s wish coming true.

Raito

Does it really? Could you tell me what exactly it is I need to do?

Kinari

“First, adjust your breathing and heart rate to sixty-five beats per minute. Next, make it a habit to get sunlight every morning and to drink milk.”

Raito

Right.

Kinari

“Eat one dried shiitake mushroom per day and sleep by eleven PM”… is what is recommended.

Kuguri

(That sounds like a health regimen…)

Raito

Dried shiitake? I have some in my supply for when I make broth! I’ll give it a try.

Kinari

Yes. I’d like to hear the results.

Raito

Though, it might be a bit difficult for me to go to sleep by eleven.

I end up losing track of time when watching Muu☆tan’s streams…

Kinari

This approach may be difficult to implement.

Raito

Is there any other way?

Kinari

Searching for an alternative method…

“Regular hydration, a balanced diet, daily moderate exercise”, et cetera.

Raito

I see… Got it. If it means meeting aliens, I’m willing to try anything!

Kuguri

(Sighs)… That’s so ridiculous I can hardly stand listening to it.
